I know it can be challenging to find conscious, useful information on sex and intimacy, especially geared toward men and with women who are your allies!

So I brought back Alyssa Morin, a Somatic Sex Educator, Relationship and Intimacy Guide and founding faculty of the Institute for Erotic Intelligence, to continue our conversation about Simple Experiments for Better Sex. If you haven’t listened to Part 1 yet I highly recommend listening to that episode first – #101.

Alyssa breaks down the complexity of pleasure, embodiment and relationship into simple actions, without removing the mystery and magic of the full erotic experience. 

In other words, instead of giving you a complicated list of practices to accomplish — like embodying an ancient God or getting into positions that will leave your muscles cramped for days — she gives you easy, focused practices that actually help you create connection and spark. 

In this episode we discussed:

* Common challenges men face, including early ejaculation, erectile issues and being an over-giver* Listening to your body’s responses and remembering they actually make sense* How to understand your erotic map and expand your pleasure* How to go from needing a specific set of circumstancesto having a wider range of experience that creates orgasm* Sexually relevant material — what it is and how finding it creates more excitement and passion

This week, in a client session, we talked about how he is discovering a more satisfying sex-life, with a wider range of pleasure and more connection with his wife. 

We both agreed it’s hard to describe this in a way that makes sense to many men. I often say to men: “You have no idea what’s possible — how much more pleasure, connection and love is available.” But that doesn’t paint a picture of the ecstatic and deeply touching sexual and intimate experiences that start to happen when you learn how to communicate, receive, and attune to your partner’s body. 

Ready for more pleasure in your sex life? Tell me about yourself here and we’ll set up a time to talk if I’m a good fit to support you.
